Dear colleagues,
I am now in a position to provide an update on the position here following the departure of two staff - career progression in both cases.
Recruitment has commenced to fill both posts, but in the interim there will be just one permanent member of staff. We are very grateful to London Metropolitan Archives who are providing a staff member on part time placement for two months from early October.
As a result the position on opening will be as follows:
24 September - 12 October 2001 Closed
15 October - 9 December 2001 Mondays and Tuesdays 9.30-1pm and 2-5pm. Strictly appointment only
The position after 9 December will be subject to the recruitment of new staff. The digital reprographic service will also be operating on a limited basis only - photocopying and microprinter copies will be unaffected.
The pre-paid search service will also continue in its present form, as it is undertaken by a contractor.
Notices with details of the opening hours will go out to our neighbouring local authority offices, LB Camden, Guildhall Library, the Family Records Centre and London Metropolitan Archives. if any office would like a notice please contact me, and subject to the size of the response, I will provide a copy through the post.
David Mander
Borough Archivist
